Yup, but we cannot assume that the airline agent we see will not check, we just have to be prepared as per the rules.
It all comes down to how CBSA staffs determine the "approval date". The airline side is a minor issue, I think.
I think it might be a good idea to create a thread about it. You can post both pieces of evidence 1) your call with IRCC agent and 2) the information about approval and PPV from the link you gave.
Just an update, I was looking at my CIC account, under the final decision area, it says the application approval date. Following is sample from my case:
We all have that. The interesting part of your post is that the CIC website has a approval date later than your COPR issuance date. That confirms my speculation that the CIC website has some sort of delay and its primary purpose is to make applicant's "feel better". In other words, it has serious delay when it comes to information update.
If you are landing to validate your CoPR, in that case they will consider that your landing is done on your PRV and NOT your work permit. An entry on existing work permit would not allow your processing of PR.
the thing is that I'm actually from a visa-exempt country, so I don't have a PRV. I've seen posts from people on this forum who were in Canada on their work permits and got telephone landing appointments as PRs. could you please elaborate why the entry on existing work permit wouldn't allow processing of PR? thank you for your input
Hi,
Hello hinavin, my PR was approved after March 18th when the travel restrictions came in place - only the PRs approved before March 18th are exempt from travel restrictions, whereas TFW visas are exempt anyhow, providing other conditions are met.
Theoretically yes, your plan could work. If you are from a visa exempt country, you enter on your work permit (under exemption), and then complete landing formalities from within the country.the thing is that I'm actually from a visa-exempt country, so I don't have a PRV.

thank you saad, so let's say they don't allow me to do the inland telephone landing - I can still request an extension of my stay, even if just as a visitor - and stay in the country under the implied status? this would be processed for at least 2 months I believe, if not more - by what time they might allow landing at POE for COPR after March 18 and flagpoling...your input is much appreciated
Why don't you call IRCC and clarify it instead of taking a risk? Current travel ban is up to June 30 if I am not wrong. It may or may not extend as we are living in uncertain time these days.thank you saad, so let's say they don't allow me to do the inland telephone landing - I can still request an extension of my stay, even if just as a visitor - and stay in the country under the implied status? this would be processed for at least 2 months I believe, if not more - by what time they might allow landing at POE for COPR after March 18 and flagpoling...your input is much appreciated
Only thing which is doubtful here is your application is processed as an Outland (correct me if i am wrong) and you are asking to get CoPR extension as an Inland. Don't know if this is acceptable by IRCC. This is tricky case My Lord!thank you saad, so let's say they don't allow me to do the inland telephone landing - I can still request an extension of my stay, even if just as a visitor - and stay in the country under the implied status? this would be processed for at least 2 months I believe, if not more - by what time they might allow landing at POE for COPR after March 18 and flagpoling...your input is much appreciated
Can we return back to our country without PR which is given in 3 months? How will we enter back in Canada once we leave without travel documents?
